    The earliest recorded bridge across the Medway existed in the twelfth century and was abandoned in the fourteenth century.

    Throughout the west of Scotland, recessed platforms have been discovered and recorded and 105 groups are known. Twenty years ago they were thought to have been used for making Charcoal for 19th-century iron furnaces. This new research argues that they were the foundations for wooden structures which were later reused, though their date remains unknown.

    Extensive study of the results of field-walking and excavation at Beer Head in South Devon.

  • - Creating Identities in Early Medieval Staffordshire
    af Matthew Blake
    736,95 kr.

    Stories from the Edge identifies a methodology to illuminate the early medieval history of places that lack the compelling evidence to be included in national surveys of the period. It demonstrates that even in seemingly unpromising places something can be said about the people of the period. In landscape terms it is a study of the little world, the local, the manorial complex with its church and burial place, a micro-topography, investigating the construction of social memory. Through this we see the way the early medieval landscape was perceived and how people engaged with it in a creative and imaginative series of responses. Their past and present were negotiated and expressed through the landscape. It is about stories and storytelling, about the creation of memory, the invention of home, spirituality and social hierarchy. This study re-tells some of those stories and recaptures the early medieval sense of place in Pirehill. Above all though, this is an account of living in a mutable landscape and the stories people once told there.

  • af Janis M. McEwan
    584,95 kr.

    As McEwan argues, the past is well suited to manipulation and can be used to uphold particular ideologies, for example those dictated by the state.

  • af Leigh Andrea Symonds
    1.153,95 kr.

    The reconstruction of ancient landscapes is not just about physical entities, but also about conceptual ones. Based on her PhD dissertation, Symonds examines how material culture can be used to reflect on landscape and social practice, taking pottery production in 10th-century Lincolnshire as her case study.

  • af Alejandra Gutiérrez
    1.023,95 kr.

    This two-volume, second and final part of this descriptive corpus of the Iron Age brochs and allied sites of Scotland covers the whole of the mainland and all of the western islands - the Inner and Outer Hebrides - and is about twice the size of volume 1. The amount of new data presented here is very much larger than in volume 1 (Orkney and Shetland), partly because there are many more sites to describe but mainly for the reason that - with the exception of the Outer Hebrides - the large number and variety of sites in the areas covered tend to be much less well known than those of the Northern Isles; very few sites in this vast area have been subjected to modern excavation. The main purpose of this work is to present in easily accessible form a much larger proportion of the archaeological evidence for the remarkable Scottish Atlantic Iron Age structures known as brochs and wheelhouses than is currently conveniently available.Another hope is that this compendium will encourage many more archaeologists from outside Scotland to take an interest in the subject, and in particular to bring the material to the attention of their students. This volume is part of a two volume set: ISBN 9781407301334 (Volume I); ISBN 9781407301341 (Volume II); ISBN 9781407301327 (Set of both volumes).

    In this work, the author assembles information that will satisfy linguists, historians and geographers alike. The corpus of Cardiganshire place-names contains some 15,000 headwords. Each headword is followed by a location by grid-reference and when possible by a notation of pronunciation in phonetic script, by historical forms, and often by a discussion of etymologies. This work is primarily meant to be a record of the locations, age, pronunciation and explanation of place-names in the county of Cardiganshire in Wales: the names being arranged mainly in alphabetical order under civil-parish headings. Some introductory chapters detail the mode of presentation and spelling guidelines, as well as giving an overview of the development of academic toponymic work in Wales.This volume is part of a three volume set: ISBN 9781841716664 (Volume I); ISBN 9781841716671 (Volume II); ISBN 9781841716688 (Volume III); ISBN 9781841716657 (Set of all volumes).

    This research on complex roundhouses of the Scottish Iron Age is split into two volumes. Volume I presents the main text, discussing the results of the analysis and the arguments for their interpretation. There are illustrations within this text that areintended to help illuminate a point at the time of reading without having to go to different sections of the book. Further illustrations are presented in the Appendix of volume I and include a sequence of maps to introduce the study area, general terminology and the tables and diagrams of the data analysis. The second volume consists of the catalogue, which is not simply the presentation of the field and research data collected during this study, but is also intended to illustrate the arguments for reconstructing individual cAR evidence. The main text and the catalogue are best read in conjunction and by compiling these in two separate volumes, it is hoped that this is the best format for such cross-referencing.This volume is part of a two volume set: ISBN 9781407308869 (Volume I); ISBN 9781407308876 (Volume II); ISBN 9781407308883 (Set of both volumes).
